Thank you for the reply. But actually after adding media through the add video option I can see that the media is added below the article but I’m not finding any option to insert those media files or picture files in the article at relevant places.

Hi
No from media option it placed below the article. only.
In editor there is option to upload media inside the content too.

Hi, Yes but in the editor there is no option to upload but there is an option to link a picture or a media. If that is the case, then why we need to upload the media files or picture? is that not designed that the author can do his own formating of the article with images / media added before submission?Can you please update the editor atleast? Because in this present condition i feel its not ready enough for the submission?

Hi
If you want to add it inside content it can be possible via tags only.
In submit media it has option to show it start, middle and end http://prntscr.com/t17pw5

Hi, Ok but after submitting media i find no tag infomation of the submitted media, so that i can use the tag in the relevant places in the article. I saw the video tutorial of this section in the joomla admin console and there it has the tag row that is in the table where the submitted media are listed below. But now in this version i don't find any tag information of the submitted media below the article . Please help to fix this because authors are not able to use the media or picture that they are submitting.

Hi
If media is not approved it will not show. Once its approved you will see this information during adding the media in content. the screenshot i have taken from the demo site to test this option,

Hi, I approved the media from the backend and added the tag to the front end article but still the picture is not showing up. Can you also add the tag row in the media table in the front end article editing window?

Hi, I am sorry to say that i am loosing patience. Hope you understand my problem, Its just simple, the media or picture that is uploaded along with the article needs to be pasted in the respective places in the article while the author submits. Hope that is the basic idea of this component to submit articles. I hope you got what i am asking for. My authors are just waiting to get the work to happen and post the articles. If i loose them then it won't be a good thing. Hope you understand the serious situation and solve the problem at the earliest.

Once you edit the article. I have made a link in the mainmenu next to my menu button ´my articles´. There the first post iarticle shows the tag number and no the picture related to the tag

Its Joomla category blog menu, kindly make a menu with Publisher type menu
Also make sure the media code is added as in shown in example the article you added was working.
Now its removed by you.

Hi, yes it works when you click preview. But if you see the article listed in category view then it does not show up. Please check these links.

but in the full view its working. Also how the author will know the id tag code for inserting the images in the article? Can you make it simple that as they upload the images or the media its not going to be published automatically unless the moderator checks it and accepts. I feel like its a double work. Author first writes everything and attaches the photo or media and then the moderater checks both article and media and then the author has to redo the article with images in place and then post again. Can you look to this?

prabzin

Hi, No its not possible to select the image and insert it in the article in the front end. The pic you showed me is correct and its not working. Please check in with the prabu login from the front end.

Hi thank you and now this one is working. But the other one that i asked for, after submitting the media, how the authors can find the media code in the front end to write the articles where it needed to be added with uploaded pictures? Please fix that issue that, to have the media code in the front end for the author to include them in the article directly at the respective places decided by the author.

Hi
When an author adding a media, once approved it will show him in the same article. the Media tag is an option to place it inside content. but this part is same for all https://prnt.sc/t23gei authors to add media.
